U.S.S. Nakamura (Ambassador class)

Hi everybody!

I've been browsing around here for a while, but finally signed up and figured now was as good a time as any to start posting some of my artwork.

I've been working on this Ambassador class ship for a bit over a year now, and though the exterior modeling is about done, I was planning to go back and texture the interior rooms. I'll post some renders of that version when it's done.

Beautiful work. I always liked the Ambassador-class better than the Galaxy-class.

Blip · December 18 2012, 12:59 PM

Hey, me too! Loved watching this progress on SFM, ryo

Bry_Sinclair · December 18 2012, 01:06 PM

Excellent work.

Also totally agree about the Ambassador being better than the Galaxy, a far better looking ship

Welcome abord Ryo!

She looks a beauty, you know. As I said you over SFM, I just feel the missing of the "lamps" inside the bussards.

Oh, and you have a pm there.

Lovely!
I'd love to see the interior of all those rooms with windows in the ceilings.

Ya- I really like this... All but the impulse engine... Looks cartoony against the rest of the ship.

Albertese · December 18 2012, 04:28 PM

Yeah, my ONLY complaints would be the empty look of the Bussard collectors and the blue impulse exhaust. Elsewise this is a great looking build! That top image of the ship from, I'm guessing, the 7:00 position looking up at it slightly; really lends the ship a sense of scale and majesty.

This is beautiful!

A true beauty. I always loved the design.
Great work.

Nice.

JJohnson · December 19 2012, 05:28 AM

Very well done on the 3D mesh here! I think the Ambassador originally had a red impulse engine, though; that aside, you've done a great job! Keep it up!

FatherRob · December 19 2012, 03:19 PM

Great job on the renders...

One thing that they make me feel is that the Ambassador design would be better suited to angled pylons as opposed to proto-TNG ones. Something to raise the nacelles a bit higher and, at the same time, create an opposing line on the ship.
